Game 1 Yankees @ Red Sox 7/7/12

Behind a pair of Back to Back home runs and 6.2 solid innings from Freddy Garcia give the Yankees the win.

Yankees win 6-1



The Yankees are playing a day night double header today (and tonight) at Boston in Fenway Park. After a nearly four hour marathon yesterday where no lead was safe and all those trendy baseball sayings these two teams are right back at it this afternoon. On the mound for the Yankees in the first game will be Freddy Garcia who will be making CC Sabathia's missed start. For the Red Sox will be Felix Doubront who is a tough lefty. Dont expect to see any left handed hitting out there but Cano and Granderson, who both hit lefties well. We may even see Darnell McDonald start a game. Remember that in the stance of a day night double header each team can call up a 26th man for the day. The Yankees have indicated that their choice will be right handed reliever Cory Wade. The game will be televised at 12:30 pm ET on YES and MLB Network's Saturday Matinee.
